Facial surgery with too much juvederm

Steven Wallach, MD answers: Blepharoplasty, Mini Lift and Fraxel while on vitrase sessions?

I have had 4 vitrase sessions to remove Juvederm. Two weeks after the last session, a lot of it is still present in cheek and eye area.

Is it ok to go ahead with Mini lift, Upper Blepharoplasty and Fraxel Laser? I hated the Juvederm and feel it changed facial shape for the worse. Will it affect outcome?

I would hold off having any type of surgery while you are working to dissolve juvederm. It would be more precise whent he effects of the vitrase are complete.

Helpful?
